      Right, so they still... undermined their own concept of CDL

      no, they compensated due to lack of physical libraries. they expanded access in conjunction with the removal of access in the public sphere. so in reality, it was still close to a 1 to 1.

      The CDL position paper doesn't say that "close" is good enough, it goes into all this stuff about how much effort they went to to develop a system to carefully track all borrowing to make ABSOLUTELY SURE the system doesn't let two borrowed copies exist for one physical copy EVER

      It changed from "We rigorously maintain the 1:1 ratio by the best technological means available because it's one of the 'pillars' of our whole legal defense" to "We have an infinite ratio but that's okay because there's a lot of physical books out there somewhere not being read"

      Like look set aside the moral argument (if you think morally copyright shouldn't exist at all and authors should be compensated purely through voluntary tip jars fine, whatever) The whole CDL thing is this elaborately constructed and technologically expensive LEGAL defense

      They themselves said "We put a lot of work into these Three Pillars that are the whole reason we don't get sued" (collecting the archive of physical books, the tracking system to preserve the ratio, the self-destructing DRM on the files themselves)

      Then they said "Oh nvm we can push a button to turn off Pillar #2 if we feel like it" Why would you act surprised that this would upset the people they were trying to reassure by creating Pillar #2 in the first place

      not an issue of surprise. bootlickers & copyright trolls will do their thing regardless. an expected action does not absolve them of being called out for BS. IA acted for the good of the people, for a limited time. keeping the other limits in place, which they didn't have to.

      The idea that the Three Pillars of CDL are an act of voluntary generosity toward authors and publishers and they "didn't have to" abide by it is exactly why they're getting sued

      Like the publishers aren't stupid, they can see how people talk about this shit, they know what direction it's going in if they don't push back

      IA swears up and down that the concept of CDL is ABSOLUTELY NOT a wedge to push the eventual glorious revolution where all media is freely downloadable and creators are compensated by voluntary tips as God intended But their supporters seem to really really like that idea
